Denise Brunner Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I think it would be a big help, have not had the time to play with the software yet, still working on the heads and servos. Not to derail this thread, but I am making a Santa and Mrs Claus, what are you all using for the flesh colored face material ??? I have a 6 servo head working and might be 7 soon with eyebrows, but not really sure what to use for the face. I have found silicone masks for $300-$500, BUT would like to spend that money elsewhere in the display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowshock Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Could this be used with the servo dog as well to sync mouth movement? If so, I think this would be used a TON!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHolmes Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Yes, Yes, Yes!I used to avoid "talking" displays because I didn't like the way they were programmed but I would absolutely work with this!I would even create a special face with 11 channels just to get something more accurate if you went that far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Important to note that each display is different so the main part of this is to have the user enter the mapping of channels to mouth shapes.

Dan C Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I have installed it and already started to get an intro for my Halloween setup underway. Its Dee Snider's Van Helsings Curse.I agree though, the software is not very user friendly. You must read the help file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsMeBobO Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 First beta release is ready.http://itsmebob.com/SD.htmlBasic steps..Download and install Papagayo.Export your mouth movements to a .dat file.Run Papagayo to Lor Select your channels for each mouth shape. IMPORTANT.. this creates a Clipboard... which means you are not setting the channel... Instead you select the relative channel in your sequence. 1 is for the topmost channel you will paste into.. 2 for the second..etc This implies your mouth channels must be next to each other... but may be any order.Create the LOR clipboard then open it in SE and paste into your sequence at the right spot.

ItsMeBobO Posted June 15, 2011 Author Share Posted June 15, 2011 There is a new beta release now. The error in now being trapped but not handled since I dont know what caused it. Which means you will get a pop-up box and the program will continue instead of a bomb. There is something about your setup which is preventing the normal flow.Here is my first edumacated guess. The folder called mouths under the papagayo install folder needs write authority to store your configs.In the near future I will release the HolidayCoro pictures which you must add as a subfolder here.Thank you for reporting this error. The next time all I need is the first 3 lines of Exception text.************** Exception Text **************System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.at WindowsApplication1.Form1.ComboBoxMouthSet_SelectedIndexChanged(Object sender, EventArgs e)at System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox.OnSelectedIndexChanged(EventArgs e) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
